Tudor Watches To Return To US Market In 2013
For the last 3-4 years, we've been speculating that Rolex (who owns Tudor) would be keen to return the Tudor sub-brand to the United States market where it has been absent for a long time. Rolex itself has dominated the US, likely fearing that the lower-priced Tudor brand would act as a competitor. With Rolex owning at least 25% of the luxury watch market, it was in their best interest to not fix what wasn't broken.

Datejust 36mm blue dial question

I have seen pictures of this watch with different types of blue dials - some seem to have a sunburst efect dial and some seem to be plain blue, without the sunburst efect. Is this the case, or are all the blue dials the same? Thanks in advance for help! :)
